Professor Frenkel gives us another view of the inescapable paradox we find ourselves fighting with and marveling at all of our lives. In a sense, once we first get an inkling of what time is, from that moment on, everything becomes goalposts that we must kick the ball through to get through another minute, hour, day or month and especially, a year. We see the trace of time on our faces as photos in a drawer that were forgotten, suddenly cause us to pause and hold our breath in seeing what we looked like all those years ago. It is always unkind to us as it steals our youth, robs our beauty, dulls our minds and finally kills us off with toxins that find the weakest organ of choice and transform our bodies back to dust. Time is our master, but we master time as well...
